Pull-o′ver.


Hat-making.) A conical cap of felted fur, forming a napping to be pulled over a hat-body. The napping is made upon a triangular piece of paper or metal, sometimes called a bason, the fur extending over both sides of the paper, which prevents the sides from uniting.

The term pull-over refers to the mode of fitting it to the body, in contradistinction to the mode of applying the napping by lapping it around the body, one side at a time.
